Photos and Description of the Playa del Carmen vacation villa rental Villa - 4 Bedrooms - 4 Baths - (Sleeps 9-10)

Villa La Golondrina - 'House Of The Swallow' - is Playacar's newest luxury vacation home. Villa La Golondrina is a villa like no other. True to the grand style of the best of Mexican beach homes Villa La Golondrina is a successful marriage of Colonial and Modern architecture set in the warmth, color, and tropical opulence of the azure Caribbean. From the sun baked Saltillo floors, jeweled with a traditional Mexican tile - the azulejo golondrina - to the dramatic and colorful Colonial kitchen, this gracious four-bedroom villa has been lovingly designed by owner and architect, both of whom appreciate the classical design of the Mexican Hacienda. As with the celebrated old Yucatecan Fincas, the villa opens to a lush, private garden and full size fresh water swimming pool, shaded by tropical fauna and tall palms. The high ceilings and flowing spaces of the interior, opening through French doors to the flowering garden outside, blend together to create a truly exotic Caribbean experience.

Every modern amenity at the villa has been carefully provided while incorporating the traditional building arts of Mexico in this contemporary vacation home. A striking example of the work of Mexico's finest craftsmen is the Moorish brick dome (boboda castellana) of the dining room and two bedrooms. Main floor air-conditioned bedrooms are beautifully appointed with fabrics and treasures from Mexico and Guatemala, and include stunning bathrooms, each with a shower of lovely Mexican tile amid lush tropical vegetation. The 2nd floor master suite (air-conditioned master bedroom) is a self-contained apartment with its own small kitchen. It is connected to the main floor via an interior staircase open to the sky. The suite offers a world of its own, a private romantic space in which one can totally relax. Its luxurious bathroom features a stunning white polished circular bathtub, and from a spacious veranda, master suite guests have breathtaking views of the aqua Caribbean & morning sunrise.

Review Submitted: January 15, 2007 Date of Stay: January 2007
Our family of 8 plus a baby had a very special Christmas holiday at Villa la Golondrina. The home is beautiful and spacious and very relaxing. For this type of private lodging in this area, it is a great value.
We enjoyed the Mexican culture, and the recommendations and advice that Gloria Kelso provided for us were invaluable to our stay.

Review Submitted: January 14, 2007 Date of Stay: January 2007
We just returned home and were greeted with ice and snow! How we miss La Gondolarine. For 15 years our extended family has vacationed during the holiday season. We have been across the Caribbean as well as up and down the coasts of Mexico. Villa Gondolarina was voted BEST place we have ever stayed. As others have noted, the house is equipped with every amenity. The staff is there to help in any way they can. The privacy of the house and grounds is an added plus. The house is beyond perfect...it is paradise.

Review Submitted: August 11, 2006 Date of Stay: August 2006
My family of 6 stayed at the beautiful Villa Gondolarina for one week and had a wonderful vacation.The Villa is furnished very nicely and was very confortable.

As one guest mentioned, the pool was the highlight of the trip. My children spent more time in the pool than they did on the beach!!

The Villa is only a 10 minute walk to all the shops and nightlife and only 30 meters from the beach.

The security was 24/7 and the pool is cleaned every morning and the house is maintained every day by a wonderful girl while we relaxed.

The benefits of staying at a furnished villa are many fold as compared to a hotel and especially one of those 'all-inclusive' deals we all hear about.
I highly recommend that you visit the Villa for your next vacation. Gloria was a wonderful hostess and provided us with many emails regarding resturants, shopping etc.

Thanks again Gloris for such a wonderful, secure and comfortable place to spend quality time with my family.

Viva Mexico!!

Review Submitted: August 11, 2006 Date of Stay: August 2006
We truly had a wonderful time at your home in Playa del Carmen. We
made a trip to Cozumel for snorkeling which was delightful even though
the reefs had been severely damaged by last years hurricane. One day,
Hanlon and I took a day trip to the ruins at Coba and went on to
another town (can't remember name) for a meal and a little shopping.
Hanlon remembers visiting the town 30 years ago and thinking it had not
changed much. Lee took the boys deep sea fishing twice and they caught
allot of snapper which we enjoyed for two dinner meals. Kathy and
I each had part of a day with a spa service that came to the house and
gave us a facial, massage, and seaweed wrap. Very self indulgent.
The pool was a big hit. The teenagers seemed to turn into young
children again and spent hours playing around in the pool.
The boys, ages 19 and 17,loved their independence as they walked most
evenings to La Quinta,bought drinks,danced and met people from all over
the world. One evening they told us about going swimming with some
French girls.
The people we met were wonderful. Very friendly and helpful...and
tolerant of our tex mex Spanish.

I could not take my eyes off the Villa la Golondrina.It is the first home that I have ever seen that is truly a living, breathing piece of art and architechture.The owner, Gloria Kelso, makes sure that all your vacation needs are attended to.The beach, pool,the rooftop tiled deck -with the most incredible view.The staff is 1st class.All the details are excellently appointed.It is a very, very good price.Quiet,breezes,swallows; it is both a family setting and a romantic getaway.We cooked the fish we caught in the beautiful kitchen nightly.The restaurants in town are excellent and very affordable.Take a day trip to the interior-Vallolodid.See Coba.Fall in love all over again.Thanks, Gloria , for an incredible experience. I'll be back soon.
